There is no official script released for this game, just some experimental script for which I can provide no support.
If the last script provided by Wulf doesn't work then there is no solution.

Ah, God of War.... How long it has been.

I have returned to this game, somewhat older, but wiser in the ways of the byte.

I have decided that these WADs shall surrender themselves fully to my will and divulge their precious secrets to me.

God of War 1. PS2.

Handler initialization for chunks:

Code:

  RegisterIFFChunkFunc(0x18,IFFProcessDynaString);
  RegisterIFFChunkFunc(0x1e,IFFProcessClientParm);
  RegisterIFFChunkFunc(0x28,IFFProcessGroupStart);
  RegisterIFFChunkFunc(0x32,IFFProcessGroupEnd);
  RegisterIFFChunkFunc(0x3c,IFFActivate);
  RegisterIFFChunkFunc(0x46,IFFPushContext);
  RegisterIFFChunkFunc(0x50,IFFPopContext);
  RegisterIFFChunkFunc(0x29a,IFFPushContext);
  RegisterIFFChunkFunc(0x309,IFFPopContext);
  RegisterIFFChunkFunc(0x6e,IFFProcessDataBlock);
  RegisterIFFChunkFunc(0x6f,IFFProcessDataBlockWLength);
  RegisterIFFChunkFunc(0x70,IFFProcessDataBlockAlign16);
  RegisterIFFChunkFunc(0x71,FUN_0017eb40);
  RegisterIFFChunkFunc(0x72,FUN_0017ead0);
  RegisterIFFChunkFunc(0x378,IFFPushHeapWrapper);
  RegisterIFFChunkFunc(0x3E7,IFFPopHeapWrapper);
  RegisterIFFChunkFunc(0xC8,FUN_0014c258);

First chunk of data from R_PERM.WAD

Code:

78030000 08000000 5741445F 525F5065 
726D0000 00000000 00000000 00000000 
FFFFFFFF FFFFFFFF 00000000 00000000 

28000000 00000000 47726F75 70537461 
72740000 00000000 00000000 00000000 

1E000000 38000000 5741445F 525F5065 
726D0000 00000000 00000000 00000000 
1B000080 00000000 00000000 00000000 
00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 
00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 
FFFFFFFF FFFFFFFF 00000000 00000000 

Each chunk header is 0x20 long.
0x0 is the chunk identifier that says which handler its passed to.
0x4 is the size of the data belonging to the chunk after the header. Pad to next 0x10 if not multiple of 0x10.
0x8 is the name of the chunk.

First bytes of first chunk are 0x378, it calls IFFPushHeapWrapper. 8 bytes data, pad to 0x10, 0x20 header size, we're at 0x30.
First bytes of second chunk are 0x28, it calls IFFProcessGroupStart. 0 bytes data, 0x20 header size, we're at 0x50.
First bytes are 0x1E, it calls IFFProcessClientParm. Yada, yada.


See that 0x1B in the data under the 0x1E?

That's a whole new section of handlers.

Code:

  BasicServer("Master_Server",0,5,100,100,0x7fff);
  MultiServer("WadServer",5,0x1b,0x80,0x80,0x7f0f,0,0);

  EngineServerContext("SNDX",0x18);
  EngineServerContext("LGTX",6);
  EngineServerContext("FLPX",0x21);
  EngineServerContext("LINE",0x23);

Master_Server sets itself up under server 0 as server 5.
WadServer sets itself up under server 5 as server 0x1b.

And that's enough pointless data dump here.

I'll update with more progress as I decode what it does with the WADs.

I've updated the first post with a WIP 010 Editor template that I just started cobbling together. I don't expect it to be of much use to any end-users yet but it seems to properly parse every GoW1-PS2 WAD I've thrown at it. I'll try to bring the BMS script to parity in the next little bit.

Does anybody know a good viewer that might tolerate semi-dirty data that could understand GoW-PS2's TXR format, with separate GFX/PALette files?

And what model/texture program is vignesh screenshotting a few posts up there? I assume it won't work on the PS2 data, but looks interesting.
